INTRODUCTION
The Wind Sensor Interface provides calibrated analog DC voltage
signals for wind speed and wind direction. The unit consists of a
circuit board assembly in a weather resistant junction box. All cable
connections are made in the junction box. See wiring diagram below.
IMPORTANT!
The Wind Sensor Interface provides a calibrated voltage
output signal for wind speed and wind direction. Externally
connected devices should be reviewed for compatibility and
correct signal scaling.
Repairs should be attempted only by qualied service personnel.
